Happy Returns
Wonderful, lovely birthday. Slim, being the consummate good sport, allowed himself to be dragged to not only the McQueen show at the Costume Institute, but to Beautiful Darling at IFC. (Look, it was raining.) Add to this cake with friends and steak with the family and you have the recipe for a great 30th.
But unquestionably, this was the highlight.
We had emerged at West 4th Street (for breakfast at Joseph Leonard) and unfurled our umbrellas when a middle-aged Indian man approached us and asked us wheedlingly, in turn, if we'd give him our umbrellas -- never mind that he looked perfectly capable of obtaining his own. We said no.
"But I'm the baby!" he said, oddly. "You have to take care of the baby!"
Happy birthday to me.

He must have been a Habsburg. Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday! Also: what a man! I mean... baby!
Happy very belated dear! I tried to email you but it was returned undeliverable. So please contact me at your convenience :)
Hi Sadie,
I've never commented before, but I MUST ask -- what is the name of the book that the doll/bear photo comes from? I read it and loved it very much as a kid but I can't remember the title -- and it's driving me crazy.
Thanks!
Kathryn
I really very thankful to blogger for such a nice information… I need such type of site for comments.
Hello, Such a wonderful blog i ever read. Please keep posting good blogs. Thank you very much...
Nice, I had been following this blog for a jiffy but I didn't become aware of that you guys we're behind it. Some of the crew from there is really remarkable but they are lacking a demo link. More and more interest and involvement would definitely bump up the experience for me and in all probability many others.
